• Y5 Science lecture

  Sun 29 Jan 2023

  Year 5 had a special treat on Thursday afternoon - Primary School Talk: The really big, really small show. It was all about the prefixes used to show size, both big and small, and the way in which new prefixes have to be chosen. We learned about ronna, quecto, yocto, giga etc and we’re slightly blown away by the extreme differences between the very small and the very big - apparently humans are right in the middle of the scale!

  

• Reception w/c 23rd Jan

  Fri 27 Jan 2023 Miss Blackwell

  We had a very exciting delivery on Tuesday, when we opened the package, there was an alien egg, with two baby aliens inside!!! The children were given a letter from an alien who asked us to look after her baby and asked if we could find the best material to protect her egg. Some children wanted to write a letter back to the alien while others tested out materials in the water tray.

  We have also been looking at the composition of five, printed cold backgrounds for our artic pictures next week, used shapes to make rockets and built spaceships outside with the large construction. 

  

• Y5 Mont Blanc - Science

  Thu 26 Jan 2023

  Mont Blanc had a fantastic afternoon investigating which nappies were the most absorbent. The children were rather stunned by just how much liquid they could absorb! At the end of the lesson, the cost of each type was revealed and there was then a lively discussion as to which was the better value for money. What do you think?

  Thu 26 Jan 2023 Miss Dobbs

• All About Alaska- Podcasting in Year 6

  Wed 25 Jan 2023 Miss Burns

  This week, children in K2 class became podcasters. Working with a partner, they researched Alaska to create a podcast made on garage band. Children learned all about controlling volume levels to ensure both speaking and backing music could be heard at the same time. All podcasts were fantastic- well done Year 6!
